Food at Camp
Campers are expected to bring nonperishable food and drink
for the entire day. Water is always available at camp. Campers should bring
snacks on swim days and/or if registered for Little People Centers or Extended
Camp. Any food allergies must be clearly identified on the Health and
Information Form to avoid problems. No refrigeration is available. Some camps
are peanut-free zones to ensure the safety of participants.
Summer
Heat
Although many campsites are air-conditioned, when code red
alerts and high temperature warnings are issued, program activities may be
modified. Scheduled events may be substituted with alternative activities such
as less active games, water play, and indoor activities. Air-conditioning is
not guaranteed.
Camper
Security
For your child's safety, only the individual(s) designated
on the Health and Information Form can pick up your child. Additionally, the
person completing the health form is the only one who can add or delete
individuals with pick-up authority.
